3rd Annual Christmas Roundtable | Theology, Traditions & Holiday Chaos


Anatomy of the Church and State

Are We Doing Christmas Wrong? 

We're back with an all-star lineup of Christian podcasters for our 3rd Annual Christmas Roundtable! Join me and guests Mike D'Virgilio (The Based Boomer), Joel Settecase (The Think Institute), Patrick Studabaker (Cave To The Cross Apologetics), and Alexxander Medeiros (Wi-Fi Gospel) as we tackle the heart of Christmas traditions, nativities, and holiday celebrations with holy hilarity.

In this merry mix of theology and total chaos, we explore how Puritans tried to cancel Christmas, debate real vs. fake Christmas trees and discuss the ONE thing atheists can't ignore at Christmas time. We cover it all. From AI Christmas music to Christian values. Plus real talk about family gatherings, personal traditions, and navigating politics at the dinner table during Christmas dinner.

Subscribe for more faith-fueled discussions on Christianity, apologetics, and liberty. Hit that thumbs up, share with your family, and drop your favorite Christmas traditions in the comments!
